Your Donation will be matched
Karen and Allen Wong, longtime dedicated supporters of BC Women’s Health Foundation, have generously pledged $10,000 to match every donation made to Women's Health Research Month until Friday, March 29th.
We are exploring ground breaking solutions and envisioning a future with innovative treatments and accessible healthcare.
Together we can transform the future of women’s and newborn health and make way for good things to come.
We’ve launched Women’s Health Research Month to raise funds to support high-quality, high-impact research to improve the health of women and newborns in BC.
Only eight percent of national research dollars are allocated to women’s health, despite women making up over half the population, highlighting the urgency for action.
BC Women’s Health Foundation (BCWHF), in partnership with Women’s Health Research Institute (WHRI), can address that gap. An investment in women’s health research is a step towards new evidence-based solutions that inform and transform the health and healthcare of all women.
Follow us all month for more on how we are working towards a healthier tomorrow.
Join us as we reimagine the future of women’s healthcare and shape a new vision where possibilities are limitless.
Your contribution can fuel advancements that transform healthcare and health outcomes, ensuring that more funding is directed towards vital women’s and newborn health research.
